Last Wed night I returned home, almost out of gas, bad storm in the area. Parked the car in the garage, and placed my Red Key "somewhere"..... Sat, went to go outside with my son Jack (He's three) and wash our cars (My Boss, and his powerwheels Boss), and No Red Key in it's normal spot on my wife's desk. Hmmm. Jack, have you seen my Red Key...."Nope!".
Sat and Sun the depression sets in ???, Search and search.....no Red Key. Checked at the gym 2x's......no Red Key turned in.
Today, made a few phone calls to order a replacement key. Dealer #1....Key Replacement $302.00 and $150.00 to re-program the key.
Hmmm, I think your quoting me for the price to purchase trac key...that's the price I paid. No, Key is 302.00. I hung up the phone and determined this conversation would have to be in person, but in the mean time I'd check 2 more dealers.
Dealer #2- Ahh, someone that knows what they are doing, trac key will cost $125.00. Ok, now on to service to get a price quote to flash the key......................$250.00, 2-3 hours labor How about you price match the original cost to flash my trac key software for $115.00.....ahhhhhhhh, nope.
Dealer#3 I have a new Trac key on the way, how much to program. Depending on if there are any issues, $50-$100.00 ;D
Ok, so plan was to order key from Dealer #2 and have Dealer #3 program it.........................
Until, at approximatly 5 PM, Jack goes to his tri-cycle, Pulls an object that was wedged between the seat and frame.............
"Daddy.........RED KEY!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
Moral of the story, Protect your Red Key with your life.......................Dealers are idiots!!!!!!
